The Pixie Project

Mission

Pixie brings together local families with amazing rescue cats and dogs through family-friendly adoption services. We create a safety net for owners facing crisis by providing emergency assistance, vital veterinary care, food, and supplies to the pets and people most in need in our community.

Bottom Line

Your gift to Pixie helps improve the lives of animals and people in your community by funding our animal rescue/adoption and community safety net programs. To make sure we're reaching those most in need, we’ve expanded the essential services we provide, including emergency owner surrender support for pet owners who have lost income, housing, or are facing emergencies by providing pet food, medications, supplies, and training support to families in crisis.

Quote

"It's a constant surprise. So many people approach me to say how much they love supporting the Pixie Project. From rock-ribbed conservatives to flower-power liberals.  Teenagers to seniors, and everyone on the full spectrum of genders. The only passion they all share is helping this home-grown, grassroots cause that helps the most helpless in our community. The Pixie Project builds bridges no politician ever could." - Chuck Palahniuk, Author & Misanthrope
